Horne police detective crime serial ("Blazing new trails of blood-tingling excitement!"; "An Adventure-Blazing Chapter Play"; "Filling criminals with hot lead... And the screen with thrills!"; "Bullet-blazing fury blasts the underworld's hideaways!"; "The great Holt in a thunderbolt of thrills!"; "Coming to death-grips with desperate counterfeiters!"; "A Columbia Chapter Play"; "A heart-pounding chapter play"; "A pulse-pounding chapter play"; "A terror-stalked chapter play"; "A suspense-cramped chapter play"; "A thrill-roaring Chapter play"; "A blood-freezing Chapter Play") starring Jack Holt ("Most popular action star of all time in his first serial!"; in the title role), Evelyn Brent, John Ward, Tristram Coffin, Joe McGuinn and Ted Adams. Note that Jack Holt spent most of the 1930s playing square-jawed tough guy leads, but he did not appear in a serial until this one, leading Columbia to add the above tagline ("Most popular action star of all time in his first serial!"). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald that was included with it, and it is pictured next to the pressbook below. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. The front cover has separated from the pressbook and the back cover is almost completely separated. There is darkening at the spine edge of both covers. Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty good condition. Learn More about condition grades
